The event marks the grand re-opening of Villages at Roll Hill (formerly Fay Apartments) as its $36 million, 27-month long rehabilitation is finished in late December. The work is ahead of schedule and under budget. The renovations include reducing the number of apartments to 703 – a reduction of 190. It is the largest green renovation of an affordable housing community in the nation to date. The developers are seeking Silver LEED certification for the project through the U.S. Green Building Council. Funders include the City of Cincinnati, the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development's Office of Affordable Housing Preservation and Fay Limited Partnership.
